2018 was like a jar of onion daikon pickles. Delicious, bubbly, slightly spicy, probiotic and health-full. What more could we ask for. Thank you all for your continued support of our family business here in rural Vermont.

As you walk into 2019, whether treading with enthusiasm or slight trepidation, we have …

The title of this post really tells you all there is to know before delving into the recipe. I will just note, read the whole recipe before starting as it requires some time and temperature controls. Good Luck and Enjoy!

I often associate creamy soups with winter and needing warmth. But I’ve been craving some rich yet light soup lately and played around to get a yummy summer soup. We ate this hot when it was fresh and then it was delicious eaten cold the next day for lunch. My favorite part about this soup? Its easy!

When I make tempeh dishes I usually default to using soy sauce to season it. Regardless of the kind of tempeh I’m making, soy sauce is my automatic “salt” addition. Since I started contributing to this blog I have been trying to break that and use miso in my tempeh dishes. Here is a simple recipe for a …

A couple of weeks ago the VT Senate passed a no-strings-attached GMO labeling bill. It is now on it’s way to Governor Shumlins desk where I hear he has already committed to signing it next Thursday. Learning about this sparked a lot of excitement in the activist/food safety portion of my mind.

Farmers to You works hard to bring fresh regional food to Boston area families. Every week they pick-up produce, meats, dairy, flour, and many other products around Central and Northern Vermont, including Rhapsody Tempeh (plain, teriyaki and BBQ), Rice Milk and Miso and then deliver it to family’s that have requested these products in the Boston area. …

Despite the frigid temperatures, it feels like Spring here at Rhapsody. For us at Rhapsody the arrival of Spring means we are emerging out of hibernation. There have been a few fantastic events that we have attended and there are a few more coming up in April. After that …

Rhapsody Eggrolls are about to get even better! We’ve been making them with local organic vegetables, organic high oleic sunflower oil, and chock full of organic ginger and garlic. As of March 1st, they will be wrapped in a local eggroll wrapper as well. We’ve teamed up with Vermont Fresh Pasta, to offer you …

As kids in grade school the topic of favorite foods always came up. Pizza, french fries, and grilled cheese were often favorites. But for me it was always miso soup with sourdough toast. As an adult I prefer steamed bread (this makes it more digestible) or fried mochi. Miso soup can be as simple and fast as boiling …

Nothing says the holidays to me like delicious warming smells coming from the kitchen. I like to make cranberry spice cakes, ginger cookies, mulled cider and my favorite: Amazake-Nog! Amazake has that thick creamy texture similar to eggnog. When warmed with the spices and vanilla the smells are heavenly and the coziness …

I’ve been stewing about what I should write about for the first post after launching our new website. Tempeh recipes, Amazake recipes, Rhapsody Restaurant recipes of the past, who are we, what do we do, how do we do it, have all been topics I’ve considered. For inspiration I was browsing through our photo albums …
